Orchard Valley Weddings
(1997)(A book in the Orchard Valley series)
An omnibus of novels by Debbie Macomber
Orchard Valley Weddings is an omnibus of Debbie Macomber's three Orchard Valley books: Valerie, Stephanie and Norah. Each of the stories is linked, but can be read independently.
Valerie Bloomfield is the eldest daughter of David and Grace Bloomfield, of Orchard Valley. David is a widower, Grace having passed on some four years ago, and he doesn't see much to live for. When he ends up in hospital with a heart attack, his daughters gather from near and far. Valerie has a successful career with an IT company in Texas, and work for a dynamic entrepreneur, Rowdy Cassidy. She has even thought she might marry him one day. But when she sees her father, he insists she will marry his heart surgeon, Colby Winston. Neither Valerie not Colby is amused by or agreeable to this idea. Sure, they are attracted to each other, but neither is what the other had in mind for a life partner. This romance has both humour and heartache. A sweet Macomber story.
Stephanie Bloomfield is David and Grace Bloomfield's second daughter. Stephanie ran away to Italy for 4 years after Charles Tomaselli, the local newspaper editor, left her hurt and embarrassed. By the time she finally makes it back to Orchard Valley, most of the drama of her father's hospital admission is over, and he's ready to come home. But he's insisting he spoke to his wife, 4 years dead, when he was near death himself, and she told him he had much to live for: twelve grandchildren, in fact. Stephanie's reaction to a recent newspaper article about her father has her once again embarrassing herself with Charles, when she had hoped to impress him with her poise and experience after her years away. And her father is predicting she will marry Charles! But every time they see each other, the sparks fly, and not only words are exchanged. Some heartache and plenty of humour in this romance: Charles eventual marriage proposal had me laughing out loud. A fun Macomber romance.
Norah Bloomfield is the youngest daughter of David and Grace Bloomfield. Norah works as a nurse at the Orchard Valley Hospital and lives in the family home with her widowed father. When Rowdy Cassidy crashes his plane on the way to stop her sister Valerie's wedding, he ends up in Norah's hospital. Though the demanding IT mogul soon turns the hospital routine upside down, Norah finds herself attracted to him. But he's still in love with Valerie, so why is he kissing Norah? She keeps having to turn down his proposals: first he wants her as his personal nurse in Houston; then he wants to marry her, but the whole thing is like a business proposal! Another delightful Orchard Valley tale, and the resolution of the Orchard Valley series.
